We’re at 38% ICU capacity free, past time to consider the cost be being shut down.

What was case rate at highest point?

I believe around 63.5

The Observer March 2, 2021 - 5:10 PM - 5:10 PM

I don’t know the peak number, but the January 15 report showed a case rate of 50.0 and an adjusted rate of 45.6.

WC Resident March 2, 2021 - 11:10 PM - 11:10 PM

The peak was on January 9th with a case rate of 62.1. You can see this at https://www.coronavirus.cchealth.org/overview Look for the “Number of New Cases per Day per 100,000 Residents (7-Day Rolling Average)” chart.

If you hover the mouse on the one of the two lines on the chart it’ll show you the numeric values for the date(s) you are hovering over. The hover has to be on or near the line. Hovering in the gray or blue area does not work. Hold the Ctrl key down and roll the mouse wheel to zoom in/out on the chart. You can hold-click to drag it left/right.

The adjusted case hovered at 48 to 49 from December 31 to January 10th. It peaked was 49.3 on January 7th.
